Importing Bitcoin private keys - 2018 - Working Method - Tried and tested -
So, being a newbie, I researched my way into the world of cryptocurrency in late November 2018, Well, I did know about crypto since 2012 but never did I think about getting into the trade, for obvious reasons.
Anyway, I found myself in a situation where I did NOT know how to withdaw or sweep the Bitcoin Paper wallet which I had created.
All the working methods shown on Youtube and other sites - Were not working for me.
99.9% of the video tutorials showed blockchain.info which DOES NOT work in my country as of December 2018.
I also noticed blockchain.info is now blockchain.com.
And apart from that, there were videos on electrum as well. That didn't work too!
Well nobody bothered to make a new video! All the videos are either from January/July 2018.
And the worst part, IT DID NOT WORK anymore!
Yep, I was kinda panicking already. As I had a 100 + USD on it. Mind you a 100 bucks in american currency is worth a lot in my country. No joke!
Lets get to the working methods now, without wasting anymore time, Shall we?
Open the above link, head over to the website and download the android or iOS application.
The same applies for this one. I've tried it on my android. No issues at all!
One of the best desktop wallets out there. Pretty reliable. And you can import your private keys here as well or sweep your bitcoin paper wallet.
